Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
My days as a handbreadth - My life is but a span; .
And mine age is as nothing - keein , as if at were not before thee. All time is swallowed up in thy eternity.
Verily every man at his best state - col adam nitstab , "every man that exists, is vanity." All his projects, plans, schemes, etc., soon come to nothing. His body also moulders with the dust, and shortly passes both from the sight and remembrance of men.
